[Discontinued] 2MP IMX327 Color Ultra Low Light STARVIS WDR Camera Module with M12 Lens for Raspberry Pi

Overview

The ultra-low light image sensor can receive more light in extremely low light conditions, making it widely applicable to special lighting projects such as astrophotography. This camera is based on the SONY IMX327 STARVIS Ultra low light image sensor. The sensor has very high performance for better image quality in low-light environments. It features low power consumption and high functionality and applies R, G, and B primary color mosaic filters, as well as a variable electronic shutter.
The camera is equipped with a 88°(HFOV) M12 Lens. A manual focus camera allows you to use it in situations such as macro photographs, low light conditions, etc. Meanwhile, this camera is native to Raspberry Pi and fully supported by libcamera and Picamera2 library.
Arducam is committed to creating diverse and convenient camera solutions for embedded camera users. We are not only engaged in the production and development of optical products but also strive to provide complete solutions for embedded cameras, optical components, etc.

Applications

• Astrophotography
• Surveillance cameras
• FA cameras
• Industrial/Agricultural cameras
• Autonomous mobile robots, UGV/UAV, ADAS, etc.

Features

• Ultra Low Light: Based on Sony STAVIS Ultra Low Light IMX462 image sensor, which is capable of capturing visible and near-infrared images with very low noise even in extremely low-light conditions or no light (near 0 lux).
• High G Sensitivity: Up to 10471 G sensitivity and ~1 NIR sensitivity. The higher the G sensitivity, the better the low-light performance. High NIR sensitivity also enables it to accept more of the near-infrared spectrum, improving image quality under special lighting conditions
• Quality Images/Videos: Up to 90fps at 1280x720 resolution, 46fps at 1920x1080 in still mode. Maximum frame rate in Full HD 1080p mode: 30 fps. Support Multiple exposure WDR, Digital Overlay WDR with clear image and higher signal-to-noise ratio.
• Native to Raspberry Pi: Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3/4/Zero/CM3/CM4. Native to Raspberry Pi. No additional driver is needed. Support the latest Raspberry Pi Bullseye OS and libcamera command.
• Cost-Effective: Second-to-none choice for performance and cost. It features low power consumption and high functionality which can achieve high sensitivity, low dark current, and no smear.
